”Glad to know I could make your day better, what’s your name?” Tony gives a faint smile, he still cant quite BELIEVE that Carlos had said such nice words to him. “Don’t mention it, it’s what I do yuh know?” A small smile falls past his lips as he glances down for a brief moment looking up ever so slightly now at Carlos.

“I’ll be seeing you around more often, yeah?” There’s a HOPEFUL gleam in Tony’s eyes, having some one who would VALIDATE him was rare and much needed. “Or at least I hope so, it’s not everyday I get some one like you round here.” Tony chuckles.

Carlos was surprised by the request for his name. “Uh, it’s… it’s Carlos,” he said. He carefully chose not to tell his last name – he didn’t know if Stark would, but if the man happened to decide to look him up and see Carlos’ history then Stark might not be as appreciative of Carlos’ sentiments. “And, uh, I certainly hope that I made yours. Your day better, I mean.”

Carlos then shrugged. “You might see me around… but honestly, I’m working trying to…” No, no, wait – don’t tell him you’re looking for a job. “I’m, um, saving money so that I can head back home sometime.” Soon, hopefully.
